Chapter 226: Locust Transit

"As for the adults who came to visit, you don't have to worry about it, those adults didn't come to visit me for anything else."

"They just want to introduce their daughter to the court as an official."

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard Lan Phoenix say this, and then understood.

It is precisely because he wants to send his daughter to the court as an official, and maybe he also wants to send his daughter to the harem as a female official in the harem.

That's why they came directly to Blue Phoenix, after all, Blue Phoenix is also a woman, and most of those adults think that Blue Phoenix will be effective after knowing their intentions and blowing the pillow breeze on their own.

It's a pity that those adults still underestimate the blue phoenix.

After Lan Phoenix knew about this, he directly suppressed the matter, and didn't tell him at all, most likely because he didn't bother with it.

After all, there have been a lot of measures to change the DPRK and China recently, and Chen Mu is also very busy.

Chen Mu saw the blue phoenix's intentions, patted her hand and said.

"I understand your intentions, and I'm sorry for you, as for Meng Qing'......"

"Don't think about it too much, she is a girl, she has a straightforward personality, and she told me as soon as she found something wrong, and she didn't want to assassinate you."

Blue Phoenix raised her eyebrows when she heard Chen Mu say this.

"Don't worry, I know, in fact, when she sent someone to inquire outside my palace, I thought she would tell you about it."

"Actually, it's fine for her to tell you what happened, but if she suppresses it. If I didn't tell you, I'm afraid I'll have to think about it too much. ”

If he suppressed this matter and didn't tell Chen Mu, but chose to do it behind his back, then Meng Qing's mind would not be so simple.

However, the other party is indeed a straightforward person, and after learning the news, he told Chen Mu in person as soon as possible.

Chen Mu saw that Blue Phoenix was thinking like this, and nodded with satisfaction.

The two women in the harem made him quite worry-free, and also allowed him to focus on the main business of the court.

After talking to Blue Phoenix for a while in the harem, Chen Mu went to his study.

After a while, I heard a report that a farmer was playing.

The Ministry of Agriculture had just been established, and after the scope of duties of the Ministry of Agriculture and the establishment of officials of the Ministry of Agriculture were made known to the world, the people's hearts and minds in the DPRK and China gradually stabilized.

The adults of the Sixth Department also felt a little relieved to see that the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture did not rob them of power and take away their interests.

When Chen Mu heard that an adult from the Ministry of Agriculture had entered the palace, he immediately asked people to be invited into his study.

The reason why this lord of the Ministry of Agriculture came to visit was simply to inquire about the arrangements for government affairs in the recent period.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you have arranged for three officials from the court and two scholars to go south to Qingcheng and Yuancheng to solve the problem of locusts...... Will it be able to completely end it this time? ”

"Our Ministry of Agriculture has just been established, if this matter is not handled well, and even causes other troubles, those adults in the court are afraid that they will ......."

As the so-called three fires for new officials to take office, the Ministry of Agriculture has just been established, and the new achievements are naturally extremely important.

Chen Mu understood what the adult meant, and he waved his hand.

Now that they have figured out how to deal with the locust plague, those scholars only need to deal with the locust plague according to their past experience and the methods they have proposed.

Chen Mu knew it in his heart, and the Minister of Agriculture who came to play saw that Chen Mu seemed to be strategizing, so he also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

He turned around and exited the lobby, and things were as Chen Mu expected.

The handling of the locusts went very well.

After counting the officials, the officials immediately went south and hurried overnight, but within three days they had arrived at the city where the locust plague was about to occur.

Chen Mu made people speculate in advance about the possible outbreak of the locust plague, and the officials in charge of speculation were the three officials of the Ministry of Agriculture and two university scholars he sent to deal with the locust plague.

Chen Mu had already made up his mind, if there was no problem with the time they speculated, they would set up a locust plague early warning agency to connect with the people.

In this way, it can also effectively prevent possible outbreaks of locust plagues in various places.

Seeing that it was only one day away from the time they speculated that the locust plague would break out.

As soon as the officials arrived, they contacted the local prefectural magistrate and the prefectural magistrate to prepare fishing nets and various fine gauze.

Naturally, the county magistrates and county guards understood what these officials meant, and that they intended to block the farmland with fishing nets and fine gauze.

But how much can you block the farmland with just these fabrics?

The plains around their city can be planted with rice, and if the desert and fishing nets are collected among the people, how long will it take?

That's what all the county officials and county guards think.

They were very dismissive of the Ministers of the Ministry of Agriculture who had been sent to their city to feed the locust plague.

It's just that those people came to take care of this matter after all, they were ordered by the superiors to take care of this matter.

Therefore, even if they feel disdainful in their hearts, they are still reluctant to show their thoughts.

It was only after the adults gave the order that they immediately began to prepare.

It's just that the strength of the people in the city is limited, and the amount of gauze and fishing nets that everyone can raise is not much.

After gathering all the gauze and fishing nets that could be raised in one place.

Some adults looked at the several agricultural lords sent by Jingzhong with anxiety, and said in a snort.

"A few adults, there is only so much we can raise, you see, if it is really not enough, we will think of other ways."

"Our city is not near the sea, and the fishing nets that can be raised are only a few dozen yuan."

"As for gauze, it's even more so, this gauze is incomparably precious, where can we buy and wear it on weekdays."

"It took a lot of effort to get these only a few cars."

Many of them were bought from large families in the city.

Several adults from the Ministry of Agriculture looked at the carriages in front of them, and then nodded with satisfaction.

That's enough.

The agricultural lords glanced at each other, and an old man led by him took the initiative to step forward and said.

"Master Zhang, thank you for bothering to prepare these things for us, in fact, these things are enough."

"Then you follow our instructions and fix these on the farmland."

"If our calculations are correct, the locusts will only fly through that path, and the rest of the place will be fenced with gauze to prevent the locusts from flying out."

"When the time comes, we will corral the locusts, whether we can catch them or drive them to a wasteland where there are no crops to grow."

Seeing the old man say this, Master Zhang frowned, and after muttering for a while, he finally nodded and responded.
